John Ottman’s score to X2


John Ottman’s score to X2
I fondly remember hearing this amazing score to the second film in the X-Men series.  For once, they actually had a stronger set of themes for the film unlike the first movie. 
My favorite part of the suite is the Phoenix/Jean Grey theme in the middle of the track.  The use of the piano beginning the theme was a nice choice.  There is a sense of wonderment and sadness to it, with a hint of darkness. 
While I like the Phoenix theme in the X3, I felt they should have carried over Ottman’s Phoenix theme to that movie, but then again we’re talking about Brett Ratner.
